Yes, product /= doc.
I would like to see the product follow the doc, in this case. It is quite
annoying to have the highlighting disappear upon the next event, instead of
upon the next use of `next-error'. To me, this a bug. IIUC, some bugs are
being fixed before the release. Could this please be one of them?
Though `next-error-highlight' might be general, `compilation-goto-locus' is
not so general. It is the latter, IMO, that needs to be fixed so that it
doesn't remove the highlighting prematurely.
